Josh Elser updated ACCUMULO-1637: --------------------------------- Description: Apache Hadoop 1.2.0 ships with the durable sync enabled by default and the support append option marked as obsolete. Because of this, the check inside of TabletServer, meant to ensure that the HDFS WAL can function properly, incorrectly fails as it doesn't know that dfs.durable.sync is on by default. This can be worked around by specifying the old durable sync property in hdfs-site.xml: {noformat} <property> <name>dfs.durable.sync</name> <value>true</value> </property> {noformat} I'm not sure how to best way to address the differences between the newer and older versions of Hadoop and their differing append support.
